Abstract

May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) is a rare condition that increases the risk of left-sided iliofemoral venous thrombosis due to compression of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery. Treatment for symptomatic MTS typically includes combined anticoagulation and endovascular therapy. This patient presented to the emergency department with acute left lower extremity pain and swelling. After imaging confirmed MTS, the patient was discharged from the ED and expeditiously treated in an office-based lab (OBL) setting with venous thrombectomy, angioplasty, and stenting. The setting where endovascular therapy is performed may significantly impact access to care for patients. Additionally, cost-effectiveness is a factor that should be considered when deciding the treatment site of service. We demonstrate the safety and cost-viability of performing venous thrombectomy, angioplasty, and stenting in an outpatient setting for the treatment of acute iliofemoral venous thrombosis.
